Pirate Archon

Chapter 19. Magic on the battlefield

The year 1502 of the Haiyuan calendar.

This year, Douglas was 13 years old, and Kapenbeki was almost 30 years old.

Kapenbeki's advantage lies in its superior absolute strength.

Whether it's fighting style or Devil Fruit ability, he has more time to explore and perfect it, not to mention that there is still a huge gap in the total strength of the two sides.

Douglas's advantage lies in the situation.

Through clever arrangements, the boy has mostly reversed the inevitable death situation. Although the Capone gang in front of him is indeed a powerful enemy, if the two sides are placed in the current environment of Skampala Island, there is not much difference in the risk of war. .

Being too active on the battlefield is not a good thing, as it will make you a target for everyone's fire.

Therefore, even if the alliance between Douglas and Kapenbeki broke down and their goals conflicted, they still maintained a tacit understanding on at least one thing. Regardless of victory or defeat, the fight between the two parties must be resolved quickly.

Flying card shot

Before Douglas finished speaking, he immediately launched an offensive.

The cards thrown with full force are extremely fast, even faster than the bullets of ordinary flintlock guns.

However, in the face of this hidden weapon aimed directly at his throat, Kapenbeki had no intention of dodge. Because of the Castle Fruit, he was not the type who naturally liked close combat.

In this case, instead of wasting time dodging and maneuvering, it is better to use your own expertise

"Shoot it down."

Kapenbeki spoke coldly, and then a special sniper bullet was fired from his jacket pocket.

The bullet and the card flew in different directions, but they met just before injuring the godfather, and the attack that was originally enough to cut off the head was neutralized.

And, this is just the beginning

Although some of the gangsters loyal to Capone's gang were blocked by thugs recruited by the Youth Army, as a sound similar to a charge sounded, Capone's belly suddenly felt like a castle gate lowering a drawbridge, and more people continued to pour out.

His original striped suit also had many more partitions at the same time, and twenty or thirty muskets immediately poked out of it. Even though those muzzles looked like they were just the size of Lego toys, the ones they fired were Once the projectile leaves Kapembecki for a certain distance, it will immediately return to its original appearance.

"How does it feel to be targeted by the Legion?"

Capone Becky picked up his cigar and looked at Douglas leisurely.However, the battle had already begun, and the young man at a disadvantage had no intention of answering.

Knowing the power of the Castle Fruit, he never thought that he could defeat his opponent with just a flying card, so after the poker was released, Douglas immediately climbed over the bunker and narrowly escaped Kapenbeki's first round of fire.

Of course, taking the hint from his little move, Albert and other cadres had already dodged in advance. Except for a few minor injuries, they were not wiped out by the overwhelming firepower of the Castle Fruit.

But just doing this is obviously not enough. If the battle situation is as completely one-sided as the paper strength comparison between the two sides, Douglas may have started arranging personnel transfers as early as when the four major families landed a few hours ago. I will wait till now and be chased like crazy.

In other words, since the boy allowed this conflict to happen here in Jin Qiangwei's company warehouse, he would naturally have his reasons.

He had long foreseen that someone would cause trouble for him, most likely it would be Kapenbeki, but of course it might also be members of the other four major families.

He knew very well that the scale of this conflict would not be too large. As said before, both sides hoped for a quick resolution.

He further believed that the right time, place and people were the right strategy. Only in this most familiar place could they have a chance to completely throw off the pursuers.

Based on all the above and many more reasons not mentioned, he stayed here with the Youth Army to pave the way for future plans, and he was fully prepared.

"Hagrid, take the others and leave from the secret passage immediately. Lily and Albert stay with me."

"I know boss"

Under the crazy outpouring of numerous firearms, the debris of the bunker was flying everywhere, and it seemed that it would collapse at any time, but Douglas's eyes were still as cold as clear ice, and he did not waver at all despite the flickering tongues of fire illuminating him.

He stubbornly avoided the chance of a head-on confrontation with Kapenbeki, and despite his opponent's scolding, he still only used flying cards from time to time in conjunction with the two helpers around him to kill a few fanatics who tried to cross the bunker, barely keeping the situation from collapsing.

He didn't seem to be worried at all that the Godfather would be cornered by his tactics. Once he made up his mind to climb over these bunkers himself, the main force of the transferring Youth Army would appear directly in front of his gun.

Yes, why should he worry? How could Kapenbeki do that?

Even the seemingly perfect ability will eventually have its own shortcomings. Unless it is an omniscient and omnipotent God, anyone in this sea will be at risk of being defeated.

The Castle Fruit provides Godfather Capone with excellent frontal firepower, but just like the name of this Devil Fruit, transforming yourself into a war fortress also means that you must stick to the offensive and defensive mode of positional warfare.

Becky cannot and will not rush into a narrow, unknown space. For him, this means using his own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths.

You know, this is Douglas' territory.

No one can guarantee whether this scheming young man has arranged any fatal traps in those bunkers. If he continues to maintain the current fire suppression, sooner or later the enemy and those bunkers will be reduced to wreckage.

How could Godfather Capone move forward so easily under such circumstances?

Not to mention that in order to deepen his signal that "the area under his feet is currently safer than behind the bunker," Douglas used a hidden weapon sneak attack and a lure-style tactical attack from the beginning, as if there was really some great trap on the wall. Like waiting for Becky to take the bait.

But in fact

When most of the personnel of the Youth Army were transferred, Douglas used magic tricks other than "flying cards" for the first time to ignite the cards hidden at the entrance of the warehouse in advance.

The cards buried shallowly in the wooden structure produced explosions with limited power one after another as the boy's abilities were activated. However, because the wooden boards on the surface had been manipulated early, the area under Kapenbeki's feet collapsed all of a sudden.

The bottom of this large pit, which is about three meters in diameter and ten meters deep, is covered with sharp blades, enough to take away the lives of ordinary people.

But as the gangster godfather who stirred up troubles in the West China Sea, Kapenbeki certainly would not die as a result.

The cowboys in his body used the hook lock to grab the beam above his head at the critical moment, and without any effort, they pulled the godfather back from the edge of death.

But taking advantage of the small delay caused by this, Douglas, who had completely completed the transfer task, had already taken Lily and Albert to knock down the other minions in the warehouse, and gained a rare breather.

"little devil"

The loss of his men made people angry, and the thrilling experience of being fooled made the godfather even more angry.

As soon as he was out of danger, he planned to fight back, but as his opponent, Douglas simply threw another flying card.

This time the attack looked no different from the previous attack, but it seemed to be slower. Kapenbeki could even see clearly that the image of the King of Spades was printed on the card.

For the godfather who already knows that the card belt can cause a small explosion, as long as he carefully grasps the safe distance and shoots it down in advance, this thing does not pose any threat at all.

But after contacting everything that happened before, his heart could not help but be shaken.

Fortunately, the sniper stationed in his body was not affected by this mood. After taking quick aim, the gunfire rang out again.

"bang bang"
